Let It Roll
Chapter 12
As we walk in, I look around and smile. All the pictures I've seen on twitter that Alex posts of him with Lisa and friends that took place in house finally made sense. I was standing in the house of the photos. Wanting to put my bags down, I continue to stand there waiting for Alex to help me find where to leave them.
"I'll show you where your room is, follow me." Alex smiles as I walk behind him down the hall towards the bedrooms. Is this really happening right now? Am I really in the home of Alex Gaskarth, living with him? Is he really treating me like someone he's known so long? If things hadn't went wrong I'd still be at home probably listening to their music being the boring girl that I was just a few days ago. We walk into the spare room that consisted of a bed and a dresser, nothing else. I normally would complain, but since it's Alex's home there won't be any of that.
"Thank you again, Alex." I say to him, feeling myself get red in the face. I watch as he leaves the room, shutting the door behind him. I begin to unpack my things and set the room up completely, putting my empty bags into the closet. As I finish unpacking, I realize that Christmas is only 3 days away, and it is also my mom's birthday.
*Happy Birthday mom, know that whether I'm there or not, I still love you and wish you the best.* I think that's the best thing I can say at this rate. I can't believe Christmas came so quickly. It'll be interesting to spend it with Alex, maybe even the rest of the guys. Oh my Gosh, I moved out of the state without even thinking about school. My best idea would probably be to finish the rest of high school online, being that the pregnancy is going to make me a very busy person. I decide to lay in the bed and chill on my laptop when I find that I have tons of messages on facebook from people, all of which involve becoming part of the All Time Low family. I think I might like this. There was also a lot of pictures that people posted from Saturday night, some of which involved me on stage. Just then, a knock is at my door and I know it can only be Alex.
"Dinner's done." He answers, shutting the door behind him. I then look at the time and realize almost 4 hours have passed since we got home from the tour. I shut my computer down and walk out to the kitchen to see Alex already eating. I walk up, serve myself a plate of spaghetti and walk to the table to sit across from him. We sit there and eat dinner, and almost the entire time it's quiet.
"So, thank you for the dinner." I answer nervously. "It's good."
"Definitely." He smiles. I can't get over how comfortable he is with me already. It's like he ignores that I'm a fan of the band and just treats me like a normal person. We continue to sit here quiet for a few minutes when a conversation I least expected comes up.
"So, I know this might be awkward for you, but I'll try to keep it as comfortable as possible for you." He says to me. Sadly, I already am becoming a little uncomfortable. Maybe that's because its Alex, who knows?
"Um, ok?" I respond confused.
"I know we just met a little over a month ago and just started hanging a few days ago. This might be a little weird but try to understand my point in this." He begins to explain. "I am the father of this baby, whether it happened on accident or not. That being said, I am going to be there for you and help you as much as I can throughout hers or his life."
"Well, good. I really would like for you to be." I smile, still confused. "What point exactly are you trying to make?" I then watch as his face turns red and he struggles to respond. As he sighs under his breath I hear 'This is so hard.'
"Alright, well I'm sure you'll be all for this." He continues. "I think you and I should be together, for a couple reasons. I think-" I decide to interrupt which is something I rarely ever do, but this time I couldn't help myself.
"You mean together like boyfriend and girlfriend together?" I ask confused, yet trying not to smile. I really hope I'm not majorly jumping the gun.
"Um, yes." He answers nervously. "I know that may seem weird and maybe even wrong, considering our age difference. But, I really like you as a person, between your personality and just you as a person. Plus, I think it's the right thing to do for this baby." My heart just dropped to
my stomach. Did I really just get asked out by Alex Gaskarth, the singer of my favorite band?
"I agree. That definitely would be the right thing. Alex, I will go out with you." I respond, feeling flushed like crazy. "Are you sure that this is a good idea?"
"Of course." He responds. "We'll have to keep it a secret through the band for now, but yeah. I'm sure it'll be fine." I can't believe I'm actually going to be his girlfriend. We finish our dinner and head back to our rooms to relax for the rest of the night.
